Product Description

Vintage 1969 Marshall JMP 50 Metal Panel Valve Amplifier

Vintage 1969 Marshall JMP 50 Metal Panel Valve Amplifier

Where can you go where Marshall is not a household brand? They are built to the highest quality and are extremely collectable in the modern market year on year.

This particular model is the extremely rare crossover period (1969), where Marshall changed the panels from plexiglass. The inside circuit, as pictured, is the same beautiful circuit that made these “Plexi 50s” so sought after! This means you can get that classic Marshall sound at low volumes! This is no exception to the rarity and build-quality of these favoured early JMP’s.

What is even rarer about this particular amplifier is the possible provenance. This amplifier has ‘Randy’ stencilled to the bottom. We all know a particular Randy who favoured Marshall amplifiers! Could this be his first Marshall amplifier prior to his 100w?

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).

We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.

It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.

The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
